Do they host Thanksgiving? He probably feels like that's his entitlement for hosting, even though it's still a dick move. But if he neither hosts nor prepares the meal, then you have to put an end to that! (I'd probably tell my mom to confront him if I were you.)

IDK about Thanksgiving. We do Turkey Day w/ my wife's family and X-Mas with mine. My mom and her husband are both in their mid 70's. They're both stubborn and not about to change now. They protect each other. They are sheltered and it just would not be worth an engagement over food.

We have a ribeye roast, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, asparagus, homemade peppermint ice cream with hot fudge for desert. Christmas Eve will be traditional New Mexican fare. Enchiladas, tamales, beans, posole, etc. Green and red chile of course, home made tortillas, all that good stuff.

Your christmas eve sounds amazing !!

From your posts, am i right in saying that Turkey is not the most popular meal on Christmas day on your side of the atlantic?

Your German apple pancake is making an encore performance at our house Thursday. My wife was boasting about it on facebook

That is one of my favorites.

There is a "Pancake House" back home in Liberal Kansas that is an awesome breakfast diner. They do one there. I searched for years for a recipe that replicates their apple pancake. That one is it. The only different thing that the pancake house back home does is that they have a cinnamon syrup to put on it. It's a light syrup (not maple) reddish in color, and cinnamon flavored.
